It's been my experience from the various houses and factories I have owned that the emails that get sent out for decay don't seem to work in a very consistent manner. Sometimes you get just one or two for a structure and other times you get an email for every 2 or 3 percent it goes down.

Regardless, I am in Sif's camp now and make sure to pay up about a year's worth of maint on any of the structures I use most times.

I also thought I read something with that last big publish for all the various droids that there were droids you could use to pay maintenance on structures but I can't remember if it was just harvesters or if it also would work for houses/factories as well.

I hear your pain.. I lost a factory not to long ago ... had 75 Heavy miner deeds.. and over 10 mil in resources...

Factories and Harvesters go from 0 mait to kaboom entirely too fast.. and with no Visual (like the miners have with fire) it is too easy to over look... it is bound to happen to almost everyone at one time in their crafting career...

I have always wanted some sort of visual effect when any structure falls below 50% condition...

I let some personal harvesters blow up yesterday and I can confirm the no meail thing. I had 1 wind generator, and 2 personal harvesters.

I got 1 email from the wind generator saying it was at some % cant remember. I got not emails on the harvesters, or when all 3 blew up.

I think an appropiate thing would have like an email when maintenance runs out,and at 75%, 50%, 25%, 10% . Maybe those all arent needed and just a maintenance email, but with SOE's programming talents I would say put in numeroues emails just in case.
